What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Doubeleive]

I just had a friend from the body shop order it. I think he got it for around 550 shipped. Do you mean parking sensors?

parking sensors are pretty standard I am talking about the blind spot sensors they go inside the bumper cover just behind the wheels, I would assume that since it's for a
Escalade that it would have them but you never know

Not sure. Probably. Got all the numbers from Nathan’s sticky

Not sure. I wouldn’t recommend it

I have a $100 deductible, so 100 bucks . I had two options, one was with some kind of blue tint or black. I got the black.

Why wouldn't you recommend it?
I guess I could bring it to a dealer to paint it. I don't know of any body shops in my area. At least ones I can trust.

Just because they can’t blend it if it’s already painted. Could get scratched up with shipping already.

Let us know how it goes. Mine also broke off but I'm further south so I might be waiting a bit longer than you.

Update: Back in July I purchased Permatex 21351 Electrically Conductive Rear Window Defogger Tab Adhesive to repair one of the tabs that fell off during a cold snap during the winter. The instructions indicated that the maximum temperature that the repair could be made in was 73 degrees if I remember right. So it sat on my workbench until a couple of weeks ago when the evening temperature was in the 60s. Took about 5 minutes to do and I left it alone. A few days later I briefly turned on the defogger and everything seemed ok. Ran it again tonight for at least ten minutes and the repair has held, the little light never shut off. I reckon that if it did not work, the light would shut off, no frost was on the glass and temps were in the 50s.

Topped off with E85 @ $1.99 a gallon!

interesting idea, I put led flashers on mine

Yeah... but arms cost $$$ when you could achieve the same for under $15 as well as avoid the potential for inducing bumpsteer and/or whatever other odd characteristics people report after installing lowering arms.




I see. Back to the drawing board!




I must agree. But I still wouldn't feel completely at rest without some sort of backup. A simple C-shaped bracket made of high-strength steel that wraps around the bottom of the bar pin (T-bar) and over the top of the mount on the arm would put me at ease.

Anyone buy nuts and bolts yet for this project can share what they used?

Installed a DIC switch. It's a great feeling greeting people and the first thing I tell them is "I just made a DIC hole with a dremel". They all have the same look on their faces.

Do you mind sharing a photo? I need to do it, but I'm hesitant to ruin a perfectly good piece of plastic.

Honestly, I'd rather not share a photo...but there's a lot out there already even on this forum. That's where I got the idea.

Reason I don't want to share it is because, like most of my DIY projects, I don't get motivated to use power tools until after a few drinks. By that time what little skill I have has diminished to the point of a tragic comedy. My DIC hole looks like I started it with a chisel and finished it with my teeth. I will say that others have done it and made it look great. I, however, did not. If you just glanced at it then it's "passable". Kind of...

I figured I had nothing to lose since I could either try it or spend the $150 or more on a new trim bezel. I opted to try a dremel first. I secured it from the back with some permanent bond foil backed tape that I've used for countless auto projects. That stuff never lets me down.

Lol, that's what I'm afraid of doing, as well! Thanks for the honesty [emoji1787]

Took the kids to see snow for the first time.

Snapped a pic of the Burb. Please excuse her, she's dirty.

Also the USPS didn't get my oil sample to Blackstone on Friday lile they were supposed to so looks like it will be after Christmas before I get any results.

How far north did you have to drive?
